You Can Make Money Online
People seem to think that it’s easy to make money on the internet.. and maybe it is. Maybe it’s really simple to make money online. But then why? Why isn’t everyone doing it? Why isn’t everyone making a ton of money online?
WHY?
I mean, if it’s as easy as everyone promises.. why doesn’t everyone just go out and make money online? everyone that wants to.. everyone that is interested.. Why isn’t every person whose ever said “I want to make money online” making money right now…
I’ve found their are three main reasons…
- Lack Of Action
- Lack Of Direction
- Shiny Thing Syndrome
And if you’re wondering what those things mean.. let me explain. Lack Of Action is quite simple, YOU KNOW HOW TO DO BUT YOU DON’T DO which is a very common thing in Internet Marketing, people have more knowledge then ANYONE else, yet they don’t use any of it.. BIG HINT: it doesn’t help you to KNOW how to do, it helps you to actually DO.
And Lack Of Direction means that your Internet Marketing efforts are ALL OVER THE PLACE. For example, are you that dude who was doing offline marketing last week, this week is a blogger, and next week will be doing mobile? Yet, none of them have given you ANY SUCCESS. If you don’t stick with something ITS GONNA FAIL (and you can’t say that it doesn’t “WORK” if you don’t give it a REAL try).
Finally, Shiny Thing Syndrome, this is for people who love to hear that some stripper found a cd (oh wait, didn’t she steal it? — something like that), and made 100′s of thousands of dollars online USING a one button solution.. (and of course they will sell you that button for just $47). Maybe that’s not YOUR shiny thing, but it is for some.. maybe your the kinda guy/girl that’s happy with a LARGE INCOME PROMISE.
By discussing Shiny Thing Syndrome, I’m not saying NOT to buy “products”, I’m saying don’t buy products because their shiny. Only buy a product on Internet Marketing, if you’re going to take it & make money with it..
This week, I’m starting one of my staff members on a new system, she’s gonna be testing a product I bought in 2010 or 2011… (That I haven’t implemented yet). but guess what? I bought that product knowing full well that in a YEAR or so, when the time was available, I could give this product to my outsourcer, and she could do well with it.
And look, I get e-mails every day asking me to help people with their businesses, the first thing I tell them is to stop DOING those three things, and start planning out what YOU want to do. what your goals are, monetary & niche-wise.. what you want to do.. what you want to work in… baby care niche? internet marketing niche? self help? — That’s what I tell these people.. If you’d like to make a business plan with me, e-mail Cindy at cindy[at]calebspilchen.com, and she’d be happy to set you up with a consult.
You can make money online. you just need the right TOOLS, and to STOP yourself from doing certain things.
until next time…
